LETTING THE AFX-300 ANSWER
CALLS
If you did not connect a TAD, or if you turned off the connected
TAD or the AFX-300’s
TAD
jack (see “Special Features” on
Page 26), and you do not answer the call in person, the AFX-
300 automatically answers the call after the preset number of
rings.
Note
: The AFX-300 is preset to answer incoming calls after
five rings. To change this setting, see “Special Features” on
Page 26.
If the AFX-300 detects fax alert tones or manual fax
switching touch-tones within 5 seconds
, it automatically di-
rects the call to your fax machine or fax modem.
If the AFX-300 detects a preset sequence of touch-tone
commands within 5 seconds
, it either switches the call di-
rectly to your fax machine/fax modem or data modem, or is set
to accept further commands (see “Switching Fax Calls Manu-
ally” on Page 24 and “Special Features” on Page 26).
If the AFX-300 does not detect fax alert tones or touch-
tone commands within 5 seconds
, it automatically switches
the call to its
MODEM
jack, even if you did not connect a data
modem.
Note
: If you did not connect a data modem, be sure to pro-
gram the AFX-300 so it routes data modem calls to the
FAX
jack (see “Special Features” on Page 26). Otherwise, some
fax calls might be disconnected.
